The world of robot lands in the Capital

ROME - Robot at the start. Today begins the fifth edition of RomeCup 2011 - Trophy City of Rome International Robotics, the event dedicated to the intelligent machines that, until Wednesday, will transform the capital into the realm of robots, androids and robotic pet. This year's theme is "Robotics for Social Innovation." VIDEO of the 2010 Organized by the Digital World Foundation, chaired by professor emeritus at the University La Sapienza Tullio de Mauro, the three days of robotics is an event full of events open to all, a meeting point for fans of robotics, school, research and business, which winds through educational workshops, workshops, presentations of prototypes, a conference and a number of important races.

A lord it, in fact, not only machines but also the more than two thousand students from primary school to university, who will present their products and will compete in rounds of robot technology arena. The competitive side of the event will in fact automata guided by the students battle it out in the categories soccer, dance and rescue.

Trophy up for grabs in the City of Rome International Robotics, Robocup the Mediterranean Open, international competition between universities in countries of the Mediterranean, and the coveted national teams 'Robocup Junior' to open wide the doors to the winners of the RoboCup 2011, the world of robotics, to be held in Istanbul in July.

The demonstration area offers a course divided between educational robotics and service, with the pilot Enea and 11 schools (from Fossano in the province of Cuneo, a Eboli, near Salerno), 4 universities (Biomedical Campus Rome, Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna di Pisa and the University of Padua and Genoa), 6 companies (Intel, Comau, Italy Clax, IT + Robotics, Roboteck, Festo Italy), the European Institute of Design, the Museum Rovereto, the Regional Education Office for the Piedmont, the School of Robotics and Robotics Network at school.

For the children, then, 14 educational courses were organized ad hoc. In addition to admire the fish-robot aquarium set up on the steps of the Palace of the Conservatives on Capitol Hill, enthusiasts and the merely curious will be able to get to know how Andreide advanced robot that can detect the presence of gas in the air, or character naive fairy-like robot, made by pupils of 10 years of the Comprehensive 1A Don Milani di Latina, which lights up and moves back and forth.

Wednesday, 16 However, the theater from 10:00 to 13:00 of the final day of the event will be the Protomoteca Hall in the Capitol, where he will be a roundtable entitled "The Present and Future of robotics: vision and roadmap for long-term 'Italy' and will be entered into a Memorandum of Understanding among 30 organizations to boost research and technological culture from the educational and service robotics.
